Conveying Capacity

Durowall has the muscle and flexibility to convey many products, from food and fertilizers to coal and other massive material.Higher carrying capacities are realized with narrower Durowall sidewall belting, which will carry deeper loads than wider flat or trough belting. Due to the continuous feed capability, Durowall will also move a far greater volume of bulk material at steeper inclines than screw conveyors or bucket elevators.
